What we are doing

National Grid has re-routed and raised the height of a line of electricity pylons in Colne Valley to achieve safety clearance for HS2 Ltd. This month, as part of the final package of our work, we’ll replace the earthwire (the wire at the top of the pylons) over three spans. This upgrade work will keep the transmission network in first-class working order and help to meet future electricity demands.. Breakspear Road North closure and diversion: From Monday 20 March until Monday 27 March the road will be closed from Breakspear Road/South up to Rickmansworth Road, Harefield.
